A method for real-time prompting a stitching degree of a panoramic image applied to a digital image pickup device. At first, a boundary band of a first image is captured to obtain an boundary image, and a second image is detected. Next, the boundary image and a local image of the second image are merged, and an association value of the boundary image and the local image of the second image is calculated. Then, the second image after being merged with the boundary image and a prompt signal corresponding to the association value are displayed on a screen.
